As far as I am concerned; and, as someone on this board said earlier, NATO should have been disbanded back when the iron curtain came down.
10:1 that if we get tangled in a full fledged commitment against Russia in the ME, China will decide to pull the trigger on territorial expansion.
I can’t think of anything in the world that would induce bathouse barry to honor Article 5 of the NATO Charter. Nothing. The man has no honor so breaking a treaty would come as easily to him as violating the Constitution.
Our Terrorist in Chief would be thrilled to have war break out.
Putin is more sensible.
Obama, Susan Rice, et al.....It’s like having a 6 year old driving a car.
This is the first time since the 1950s that a Russian or Soviet military aircraft has been publicly acknowledged to have been shot down by a NATO country.
Honestly, when I woke up to the news of the downed jet, and learned that Turkey had shot it down, I had a sinking feeling in my stomach.
Say, for instance, Russia decides to take out some SAM sites in Turkey...for their own ‘safety’.
The best case scenario that can result from this: a demonstration to the world once and for all that NATO is a joke, and membership is meaningless. That’s the BEST result. All Putin has to do is push the issue with Turkey.
“If democrats can’t contain Obama they’ll lose it all in 2016...”
we could only hope! but those folks who have invested so heavily in Hillary’s 2016 campaign and the Clinton Global Initiative are going to make sure that HRC is our next president. as they are looking forward to, and expecting, a big return on their investment. count on it. [but, Dear Lord, don’t let it be so.]
Why is Turkey (muslims) a part of NATO? They have been helping Isis.
“This is a little over the top.”
Agree. Obama will not ever pull the trigger for war. Never. If the United States is ever attacked, it will be his subordinates who will have to take over.
